Red Rock Camp Meeting.
Sam Small arrived at Red Rock yes
terday and inaugurated his crusade
against all kinds of sin, at that place.
Early yesterday morning there was
visible stir on the grounds when it was
whispered from tent to tent that Small
and family had passed through Red
Rock on their way to st. Paul and that
he would crttainly be back i'll time to
deliver the afternoon sermon. An early
Bible reading was held, followed by a
sermon at 10;45 by Rev. ID. }; Higgins,
text In Him was life and
the life was the light of men,"
The afternoon sermon was announced
for O'Clock, and long before that time
crowds of people could be seen vending
their way toward the tabernacle, which,
large as it is, was nearly filled. After
some very fine music by the choir, under
the charge of Prof. Excel, Sam Small
stepped forward and delivered charac-
teriStic address: Il am glad to be with
you on these grounds, amid these way
ing trees in this magnificent pavilion"
he said. Il have prayed for this oppOr
tunity, and that We may be even more
successful than last year. | believe God
hangs on the outskirts of Red Rock
ready to bless us If we only
ask HIM. We do not gather here be-
cause it is pleasant to be i'll these beau
tiful groves and to have good time.
We are here because groves were Gods
first temples. TO commune with nature
and look up to natures God. To spend
short time in pleasant Christian con-
yerSation and intercourse and prayer
and perfect submission to God without
the distractions Of large city. We are
here to form those resolutions which
will form themselves into the adaman-
tine walls OF our characters. This can
be made the most successful meeting i'll
the whole nineteen years of Red Rocks
existence. and you know the one thing
needed to make it a big meeting.
You know how to have it and the
only question is, will you have it.
1t costs something. not in dollars and
cents-it costs Self-denial, self-sacrifice;
costs an entire and absolute submission
to the Lord. You must give the powers
of heart, of mind and OF body for the
time. 1t may cost good many things
you perhaps are
NOT READY TO PAY.
1t may prevent yourlying in bed when
you ought TO be out praying God to take
away the plague OF SHINING. Why, |
wouldn't give flip OF my finger for all
Its going 10 rain; guess l won't go to
church, How much would you give
for such Christianity on the market?
Why, if you would put it on the market
along side of the right sort it would take
tumble worse than wheat took yeSter-
day, only instead of falling twenty
points it would drop 100, and you
couldn't give it away. If anything hap
pens to you while here you just put it
down that it is because you made hol-
low moekery of this place of
worship. If your house burns, your
crops destroyed. or any other devilment
happens put it Gown because you came
here to play and have good time, in
stead of working for the Lord. | have
come here with my faith high and eX-
pect TO see the grandeSt camp meeting
1 have ever attended held here at Red
Rock.
Mr. Small then read Colossians H., s,
and 10: Beware lest any man de-
ceive you through philosophy and
vain deceit" etc. Among some of his
remarks were those given below. This
world is getting to be filed with numer-
Gus PHILOSOPHERS Sown broadcast. A
monStrouS number of iSmS have arisen.
We have theories of life and morals,
society relations, political relations and
national relations"
''Wheneyer man can't run his bust
ness according to the Bible he is doing a
dishonest business. Right, truth, purity
and integrity are gifts from above:
general rule and general custom come
from hell. The man who put up sign
i'll front of his store in st. Paul, saying
Selling out below cost knew he was
lying. If man will tell lie at the
front end Of his store, what will he do at
the back door?
Il had rather play craps with a niger
on the levee than bet on base ball.
There is nothing more disgusting than
to ride along and see those little SLIM
legged dudes with their striped shirts
going to see and bet on base ball game.
They are perfect little devils, jumping
jacks.
